SHOW YOUR SUPPORT: Stop the Carbon Tax!

Fight back and demand that Justin Trudeau repeal his punishing carbon tax cash grab!

STOP THE CARBON TAX!

A handful of protesters on Highway 1, near the junction of Highway 22, have settled in for the long haul.

Looks like some people got inspired by the 2022 Ottawa Freedom Convoy!

They've brought their trucks and their trailers and their supplies, Freedom Convoy style, in an attempt to have their voices heard.

Police are spying on Albertans peacefully protesting against Trudeau’s carbon tax.

They’ve set up a surveillance trailer 500 yards from the protesters to monitor them (and likely to build a database of protesters using facial recognition software).

They're being crushed by Trudeau's inflationary carbon tax, the way so many Canadians are. On April 1st, the same day federal MPs gave themselves an $8,500 a year raise, Canadians saw the liberals green tax, which accumulates every step along the supply chain, jump from $65 per tonne to $85.

It's like some sick joke. And Canadians were the butt of it.
